Hello,
I've been using ML-Cad, L3P, L3PAO, and Pov Ray for a while now, and I've
been wondering what the best way is to render minifig heads and/or helmets.
I've seen some beautiful renderings out there, with wonderful ROUND heads,
but I haven't been able to figure out how to do it.  I was hoping that using
the LGEO parts would do the trick, but I didn't have any luck.
If one of the rendering gurus out there would be able to help me, I'd
greatly appreciate it.  Thanks!

-Joel

(...) What you need to do is render a blank round head and then use an image_map of the face for the pigment of the head. You can change the map type to a cylindrical wrap instead of rectangular if necessary. A slightly lower qualityway to do it (...) (23 years ago, 21-Nov-01, to lugnet.cad.ray)
